It is a white crystalline solid compound which was first synthesized and characterized by Shore and Parry [1] in the year 1955. The primary elements that make ammonia borane are nitrogen, hydrogen and boron.The complex chemical hydride, ammonia borane (NH3BH3, AB) is a hydrogen rich compound. It is a promising hydrogen source for applications using proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) due to hydrogen content. It has reasonably lower operating temperatures compared with other solid-state hydriding materials. At present, AB is an expensive disposable source which in its pure form releases 1 mol of hydrogen at around 110 C.en-USAmmonia borane Nano-nickelDehydrogenation Thermolysis Kinetics DecompositionBook
